Holiday cottages in Devon

Devon's status as 'The English Riviera' is well earned and is testimony to the popularity of this holiday destination, which attracts thousands of visitors every year who come to enjoy its special charms.

The county is blessed with two coastlines which are dotted with picturesque fishing ports and mile after mile of clean sandy beaches. The interior consists of a striking contrast of dramatic moorland that includes the Dartmoor National Park and a patchwork of green leafy lanes that criss-cross the region.

Dartmoor actually has two national parks as well as five areas of outstanding natural beauty, a UNESCO World Heritage site, Geopark and Biosphere Reserve. It's also famous as the location for Conan Doyle's 'Hound of the Baskervilles'. It has 368 square miles of windswept, dramatic and uncrowded moors to enjoy!

The English Riviera; Torquay, Paignton and Brixham, are a magnet for those looking for a seaside holiday with lots of attractions and activities for all ages. It also has a rich maritime history, plenty of sporting events and water sports activities.

South Devon is characterised by gentle rolling hills and a lovely coastline, offering easy walks, country pubs and great restaurants, while the northern coast has superb surfing beaches. Exmoor in north Devon is perfect for moorland walks, mountain biking and has wonderful natural beauty.

The many facets of Devon provide visitors with a wide choice of holiday options and lots of top quality visitor attractions and days out, such as the Dartmouth Steam Railway and The National Marine Aquarium; too many to mention here.

Of note is Woolacombe Beach, one of the jewels in Devon's crown with three miles of golden sand of Blue Flag status and the Tarka Trail; its 30 miles forms a figure-of-eight and follows the path the brave otter takes in Henry Williamson's beloved novel.

If you fancy walking on the wild side why not take a trip to one of Devon's many animal attractions? The zoo at Paignton offers an array of exotic creatures and makes for a wonderful day out, while the Totnes Rare Breeds Farm is also very popular with families.

Comfortable well equipped bungalow but you would need a car as it lives up to its name and is up a very steep hill. Once down the buses are frequent but I wouldn’t want to walk up the hill after a day out. The local "shoppers link" bus is available but only hourly and is very slow. Oct 2012.

Comfortable, clean, spacious and warm - what more could you want, apart from a wider gateway! Sept 2012.

the bungalow was clean and very functional loved the conservatory, the garden was apleasure to sit out in and safe for our dog. Would definitely go again. The drive way was tight getting on and off drive. Could do with more mugs especially if using the dishwasher. Loads of places to visit cockington definite place to visit. Sept 2012.

This tastefully detached bungalow is situated in a quiet elevated position on a development of similar properties in a residential area of Paignton. A car is essential as the area is hilly and it would take some considerable time to walk to the seafront.There is a bus service to the development from Paignton town centre. There is a parade of shops within walking distance and also a farm shop. The bungalow is comfortable and very well equipped,the bathroom and kitchen are of superior quality. A large rear garden complements the property. We would certainly recommend it. May 2012.
